*Ahem*... FREE PLACE TO HOST AMVS

The impossible has risen from the dust everybody! Sony Imagestation.com (http://www.imagestation.com) allows you to upload images and videos of up to 40 megs each to an "album" where they can be shared with the world!

Here are the specs:

HTTP://WWW.IMAGESTATION.COM
- absolutely free
- unlimited space to upload images/videos
- Videos MUST be .mpg or .mpeg. NO AVIs (remember Tsunami MPEG Encoder? Use it!)
- Images MUST be .jpg, .jpeg, .gif, .png, .bmp, .tif, .tiff
- 20 megs per file for IMAGES
- 40 megs per file for VIDEOS
- No direct linking (links can go to a specific page in your album)

INSTRUCTIONS ON UPLOADING YOUR VIDEO (complete with screenshots)
- First go and register. Click Here to go to the registration screen.
Image

- When you click Join, you will be presented with a "Activate your Account" screen like this one.
Image

- At this point, open a new browser window and go to your email account.

- There should be a new email in your account called "Imagestation Account Activation Your Activation Code is ########". Open it.
Image

- In the email will be an activation link. Click the link.
Image

- A new window will open asking you to "refer friends and family". You can close this window.
Image

- Go back to ImageStation.com, and Sign In with your username/password.
Image

- After you've logged in, you'll want to create an album, so click on "My ImageStation", and then click on Create a New Album.
Image

- Put whatever information you want into the fields. Make sure you do not have a password, do not let guests add to your album, the rating should be "G", unless you're putting hentai flicks in your album, then it should be "R".
Image

- You should be able to see your album now. Now go back to My Imagestation and go to "Upload Images"
Image

- Now for the part that isn't too obvious. DO NOT USE THE PROVIDED UPLOAD FEATURE!! Instead click the blue animation in the "Method 2" section. It won't show up as a link, but click it anyway. It will pop up an "open file" dialogue.
Image

- You'll then be presented with a confirmation window, where you can change the name of your videos and other options. Click Continue and the videos will start uploading (note, you might need to install something called "EasyUpload" to your computer. That's OK, let it install.
Image

- The videos will now start to upload. A window with a progress indicator will appear with status information. The videos are uploading to an area called your "storage bin". This area is your holding place where stuff isn't being shared. From your storage bin you have to transfer them into your album.
Image

- Once the images are in your album, you can navigate to the appropriate page in your album and copy the URL. You're all set to setup a link on a-m-v.org now!

Ack! You can't make posts sticky! Can someone edit this for me?

It allows .MPEG, .MPG, and .RM for video formats. And you can accually direct link it... evan though it says you cant. To get direct link go to the download page for the vid (its a little dialog box that had the blueish download button) right-click on the button and then in the right-click menu thingy that pops up select "Copy Shortcut" then past the link where ever and that is your direct link. But you mush right-click and go to "Save Target As" to download from there.

That method is a pain in the ass, just use the third option. The one that has the bar and then a button that says brouse. It dosent show your progress, but its why easyer.
